Hubski is a trusted place to find, create, share and discuss the most interesting content on the web.

Conversation on the web is broken. There is a lack of true community online, and people aren't developing great relationships with one another. Following topics or interests leads to an echo chamber of likeminded individuals agreeing with each other. When intelligent discourse does happen, vitriolic commentary and trolls drown it out. Hubski fixes this.

People follow one another on Hubski. This fosters relationships around shared interests and conversation. Content propagates throughout Hubski by sharing and re-sharing. Following people instead of topics allows for serendipitous content discovery and a high level of discourse.

People have the ability to curate their own experience on Hubski; external moderation is not needed. For example: when someone posts content you aren't interested in you can "filter" them, when someone posts comments that you find offensive, you can "mute" them.

We have been fortunate to cultivate a community of thoughtful individuals, so much so, that content creators have reached out to us and asked if we could mirror the discussions taking place on Hubski back on their websites and blogs. Thus Discussion via Hubski was born:

That is where you got it precisely right - I can ignore domains, I can ignore tags, and I can ignore people. That gives me three different chances to keep out the spam...it doesn't get shared around, so it might as well not exist.

Now there's a newcomer quietly building a reputation as a potential new mega community, one where polite conversation still dominates...and a small team of enthusiasts, aims to offer a real alternative to the typical low attention fodder of the current web megasites.
